Abstract:
Routing arrangements for 3D memory arrays and methods of forming the same are disclosed. In an embodiment, a memory array includes a first word line extending from a first edge of the memory array in a first direction, the first word line having a length less than a length of a second edge of the memory array perpendicular to the first edge of the memory array; a second word line extending from a third edge of the memory array opposite the first edge of the memory array, the second word line extending in the first direction, the second word line having a length less than the length of the second edge of the memory array; a memory film contacting the first word line; and an OS layer contacting a first source line and a first bit line, the memory film being disposed between the OS layer and the first word line.
